Is Calzaghe not in there because he has just retired? What position was he in?
I can’t believe Ricky is lingering in 8th, just one place ahead of ‘Celestino Caballero’… who the hell is he?! I relation to the Nigerian left back Celestine Babayaro perhaps?!
Yes that’s right and Joe was in 2nd or 3rd just behind Pacquiao.
The p4p list has alwas been controversial and since Hatton’s defeat to Mayweather he hasn’t had a chance to move back up. Although things could really change when he meets Pacquiao.
Where’s Calzhage?
He retired over seven months ago, so is no longer part of the p4p rankings, although these are quite out of date now
